Be careful of this solution. Time functions were formerly returning an
error until the RTC was set to an accurate time. The new behavior is
to return a fake/incorrect time without an error. I don't think it's a
good idea to misreport something time system wide without error.

You might want to consider other ways to get beyond signature checks
that are less intrusive, and not system wide.
